  2005 Toy Fair pics for Megabloks
 
Just a couple of links to pics for upcoming Megablok sets: (URL) and (URL) There's a new theme called 'Pyrates' - Pirates vs. Skeletons. Looks like the Dragon line is going Oriental. Only a couple of new things shown for the Marvel line: 2 new sets (...) (20 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Rights to Spiderman..
 
Megablocks have the comic rights. Lego have the film rights. Lego can only produce sets relevant to the films, megablocks can't reference the films only the comics. You might find that the Lego deal is with Sony(?) and the Megablocks one, directly (...) (20 years ago, 23-Feb-05, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Clone brand?
 
No real commentary from me, but I just found (URL) these> online and thought I'd share. Dave! (20 years ago, 22-Feb-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Re: Rights to Spiderman..
 
(...) To answer the last part: no listings in the Danish 2005 catalogue... /Jesper (20 years ago, 21-Feb-05, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Rights to Spiderman..
 
I saw in the (URL) and Mail> that Mega Bloks "has Spider-Man on its side since the Montreal company struck an exclusive deal last fall with Marvel Enterprises to develop products featuring Marvel's super heroes, which also include X-Men, Hulk and (...)

  Re: Price of petrol vs price of plastic products
 
(...) I'm keeping this in lugnet.lego because it might actually be relevant there. Feel free to FUT as appropriate. Overnight, KMart has increased its prices for MegaBloks sets by about 15%. I happen to have been in this same store yesterday, so I (...) (20 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.lego)

  Re: Pokemon Mega Bloks
 
(...) Alas, the whole Pokemon mythology is a mystery to me. As far as I know, Pikachu is the sound of a voyeur's sneeze (pause for raucous laughter). Anyway, I spotted these new Pokemon sets at KMart and grabbed one at random. As it turns out, only (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jan-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Re: Get over to Megabloks.com right now!
 
(...) I wonder if this is some kind of swipe at the "collectible masks" market. I'm afraid that it's lost on me, but if it helps sell some more Dragons, then that's super. (...) I can't say for sure, but these look like the same molds used for the (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jan-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Re: Get over to Megabloks.com right now!
 
(...) My local Walmart had most of the new sets when I was in earlier this week. Set 1931 Spider-man vs. Venom is the one that comes in a metal box (like the chess set from a year or two ago). (...) Unleash was the only one of the three (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jan-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Re: Get over to Megabloks.com right now!
 
(...) I checked my local Target, but no sign of the Marvel sets. Oddly, they've rearranged the construction block aisle now that Christmas has passed, and I don't even see a mention of the Marvel stuff in the little placeholder labels on the (...)

  Re: Get over to Megabloks.com right now!
 
(...) I just got back from lunch at Walmart, and held/inspected some of those sets. Then I get back and check out Lugnet, and you report on the MB site update. My report: I looked at the following sets; 1911, 1916, 1917, and one other set that had a (...) (20 years ago, 6-Jan-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

  Pokemon Mega Bloks
 
I was in Meijer over the weekend with my Nephew and was browsing the isle as always. They had many new Mega Bloks products including Pokemon Balls that had Mega Bloks inside. There are 4 different kinds to find. He got Pikachu that can evolve from (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jan-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Just build.....
 
(...) Doh! Uh... Hmm... Uh... Sophocles wrote plays over two thousand years ago, and the well has been used as a watersource since antiquity, so "Play Well" is clearly a ripoff, too. Uh, sure... Dave! (20 years ago, 27-Dec-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
